-1. Contributors
-
- The major original contributors of this document were: Tatu Ylonen,
- Tero Kivinen, Timo J. Rinne, Sami Lehtinen (all of SSH Communications
- Security Corp), and Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen (University of
- Jyvaskyla)
-
- The document editor is: [email protected]. Comments on this
- internet draft should be sent to the IETF SECSH working group,
- details at: http://ietf.org/html.charters/secsh-charter.html
-
-2. Introduction
-
- The SSH Connection Protocol has been designed to run on top of the
- SSH transport layer and user authentication protocols. It provides
- interactive login sessions, remote execution of commands, forwarded
- TCP/IP connections, and forwarded X11 connections. The service name
- for this protocol is "ssh-connection".
-
- This document should be read only after reading the SSH architecture
- document [SSH-ARCH]. This document freely uses terminology and
- notation from the architecture document without reference or further
- explanation.
-
-3. Conventions Used in This Document
-
- The keywords "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT",
- and "MAY" that appear in this document are to be interpreted as
- described in [RFC2119].
-
- The used data types and terminology are specified in the architecture
- document [SSH-ARCH].
-
- The architecture document also discusses the algorithm naming
- conventions that MUST be used with the SSH protocols.
-
-4. Global Requests
-
- There are several kinds of requests that affect the state of the
- remote end "globally", independent of any channels. An example is a
- request to start TCP/IP forwarding for a specific port. All such
- requests use the following format.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_GLOBAL_REQUEST
- string request name (restricted to US-ASCII)
- boolean want reply
- ... request-specific data follows
-
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 3]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
- Request names follow the DNS extensibility naming convention outlined
- in [SSH-ARCH].
-
- The recipient will respond to this message with
- SSH_MSG_REQUEST_SUCCESS or SSH_MSG_REQUEST_FAILURE if `want reply' is
- TRUE.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_REQUEST_SUCCESS
- ..... response specific data
-
- Usually the response specific data is non-existent.
-
- If the recipient does not recognize or support the request, it simply
- responds with SSH_MSG_REQUEST_FAILURE.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_REQUEST_FAILURE
-
-
-5. Channel Mechanism
-
- All terminal sessions, forwarded connections, etc. are channels.
- Either side may open a channel. Multiple channels are multiplexed
- into a single connection.
-
- Channels are identified by numbers at each end. The number referring
- to a channel may be different on each side. Requests to open a
- channel contain the sender's channel number. Any other
- channel-related messages contain the recipient's channel number for
- the channel.
-
- Channels are flow-controlled. No data may be sent to a channel until
- a message is received to indicate that window space is available.
-
-5.1 Opening a Channel
-
- When either side wishes to open a new channel, it allocates a local
- number for the channel. It then sends the following message to the
- other side, and includes the local channel number and initial window
- size in the message.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN
- string channel type (restricted to US-ASCII)
- uint32 sender channel
- uint32 initial window size
- uint32 maximum packet size
- ... channel type specific data follows
-
- The channel type is a name as described in the SSH architecture
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 4]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
- document, with similar extension mechanisms. `sender channel' is a
- local identifier for the channel used by the sender of this message.
- `initial window size' specifies how many bytes of channel data can be
- sent to the sender of this message without adjusting the window.
- `Maximum packet size' specifies the maximum size of an individual
- data packet that can be sent to the sender (for example, one might
- want to use smaller packets for interactive connections to get better
- interactive response on slow links).
-
- The remote side then decides whether it can open the channel, and
- responds with either
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN_CONFIRMATION
- uint32 recipient channel
- uint32 sender channel
- uint32 initial window size
- uint32 maximum packet size
- ... channel type specific data follows
-
- where `recipient channel' is the channel number given in the original
- open request, and `sender channel' is the channel number allocated by
- the other side, or
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN_FAILURE
- uint32 recipient channel
- uint32 reason code
- string additional textual information (ISO-10646 UTF-8 [RFC2279])
- string language tag (as defined in [RFC3066])
-
- If the recipient of the SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN message does not support
- the specified channel type, it simply responds with
- SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN_FAILURE. The client MAY show the additional
- information to the user. If this is done, the client software should
- take the precautions discussed in [SSH-ARCH].
-
- The following reason codes are defined:
-
- #define SSH_OPEN_ADMINISTRATIVELY_PROHIBITED 1
- #define SSH_OPEN_CONNECT_FAILED 2
- #define SSH_OPEN_UNKNOWN_CHANNEL_TYPE 3
- #define SSH_OPEN_RESOURCE_SHORTAGE 4
-
-
-5.2 Data Transfer
-
- The window size specifies how many bytes the other party can send
- before it must wait for the window to be adjusted. Both parties use
- the following message to adjust the window.
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 5]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_WINDOW_ADJUST
- uint32 recipient channel
- uint32 bytes to add
-
- After receiving this message, the recipient MAY send the given number
- of bytes more than it was previously allowed to send; the window size
- is incremented.
-
- Data transfer is done with messages of the following type.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_DATA
- uint32 recipient channel
- string data
-
- The maximum amount of data allowed is the current window size. The
- window size is decremented by the amount of data sent. Both parties
- MAY ignore all extra data sent after the allowed window is empty.
-
- Additionally, some channels can transfer several types of data. An
- example of this is stderr data from interactive sessions. Such data
- can be passed with SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EXTENDED_DATA messages, where a
- separate integer specifies the type of the data. The available types
- and their interpretation depend on the type of the channel.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EXTENDED_DATA
- uint32 recipient_channel
- uint32 data_type_code
- string data
-
- Data sent with these messages consumes the same window as ordinary
- data.
-
- Currently, only the following type is defined.
-
- #define SSH_EXTENDED_DATA_STDERR 1
-
-
-5.3 Closing a Channel
-
- When a party will no longer send more data to a channel, it SHOULD
- send SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EOF.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EOF
- uint32 recipient_channel
-
- No explicit response is sent to this message; however, the
- application may send EOF to whatever is at the other end of the
- channel. Note that the channel remains open after this message, and
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 6]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
- more data may still be sent in the other direction. This message
- does not consume window space and can be sent even if no window space
- is available.
-
- When either party wishes to terminate the channel, it sends
- SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE. Upon receiving this message, a party MUST
- send back a SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE unless it has already sent this
- message for the channel. The channel is considered closed for a
- party when it has both sent and received SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE, and
- the party may then reuse the channel number. A party MAY send
- SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE without having sent or received
- SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EOF.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE
- uint32 recipient_channel
-
- This message does not consume window space and can be sent even if no
- window space is available.
-
- It is recommended that any data sent before this message is delivered
- to the actual destination, if possible.
-
-5.4 Channel-Specific Requests
-
- Many channel types have extensions that are specific to that
- particular channel type. An example is requesting a pty (pseudo
- terminal) for an interactive session.
-
- All channel-specific requests use the following format.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient channel
- string request type (restricted to US-ASCII)
- boolean want reply
- ... type-specific data
-
- If want reply is FALSE, no response will be sent to the request.
- Otherwise, the recipient responds with either SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS
- or SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE, or request-specific continuation
- messages. If the request is not recognized or is not supported for
- the channel, SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE is returned.
-
- This message does not consume window space and can be sent even if no
- window space is available. Request types are local to each channel
- type.
-
- The client is allowed to send further messages without waiting for
- the response to the request.
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 7]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
- request type names follow the DNS extensibility naming convention
- outlined in [SSH-ARCH]
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS
- uint32 recipient_channel
-
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE
- uint32 recipient_channel
-
- These messages do not consume window space and can be sent even if no
- window space is available.
-
-6. Interactive Sessions
-
- A session is a remote execution of a program. The program may be a
- shell, an application, a system command, or some built-in subsystem.
- It may or may not have a tty, and may or may not involve X11
- forwarding. Multiple sessions can be active simultaneously.
-
-6.1 Opening a Session
-
- A session is started by sending the following message.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN
- string "session"
- uint32 sender channel
- uint32 initial window size
- uint32 maximum packet size
-
- Client implementations SHOULD reject any session channel open
- requests to make it more difficult for a corrupt server to attack the
- client.
-
-6.2 Requesting a Pseudo-Terminal
-
- A pseudo-terminal can be allocated for the session by sending the
- following message.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient_channel
- string "pty-req"
- boolean want_reply
- string TERM environment variable value (e.g., vt100)
- uint32 terminal width, characters (e.g., 80)
- uint32 terminal height, rows (e.g., 24)
- uint32 terminal width, pixels (e.g., 640)
- uint32 terminal height, pixels (e.g., 480)
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 8]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
- string encoded terminal modes
-
- The encoding of terminal modes is described in Section Encoding of
- Terminal Modes (Section 8). Zero dimension parameters MUST be
- ignored. The character/row dimensions override the pixel dimensions
- (when nonzero). Pixel dimensions refer to the drawable area of the
- window.
-
- The dimension parameters are only informational.
-
- The client SHOULD ignore pty requests.
-
-6.3 X11 Forwarding
-
-6.3.1 Requesting X11 Forwarding
-
- X11 forwarding may be requested for a session by sending
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient channel
- string "x11-req"
- boolean want reply
- boolean single connection
- string x11 authentication protocol
- string x11 authentication cookie
- uint32 x11 screen number
-
- It is recommended that the authentication cookie that is sent be a
- fake, random cookie, and that the cookie is checked and replaced by
- the real cookie when a connection request is received.
-
- X11 connection forwarding should stop when the session channel is
- closed; however, already opened forwardings should not be
- automatically closed when the session channel is closed.
-
- If `single connection' is TRUE, only a single connection should be
- forwarded. No more connections will be forwarded after the first, or
- after the session channel has been closed.
-
- The "x11 authentication protocol" is the name of the X11
- authentication method used, e.g. "MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1".
-
- The x11 authentication cookie MUST be hexadecimal encoded.
-
- X Protocol is documented in [SCHEIFLER].
-
-
-
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 9]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
-6.3.2 X11 Channels
-
- X11 channels are opened with a channel open request. The resulting
- channels are independent of the session, and closing the session
- channel does not close the forwarded X11 channels.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN
- string "x11"
- uint32 sender channel
- uint32 initial window size
- uint32 maximum packet size
- string originator address (e.g. "192.168.7.38")
- uint32 originator port
-
- The recipient should respond with SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN_CONFIRMATION
- or SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN_FAILURE.
-
- Implementations MUST reject any X11 channel open requests if they
- have not requested X11 forwarding.
-
-6.4 Environment Variable Passing
-
- Environment variables may be passed to the shell/command to be
- started later. Uncontrolled setting of environment variables in a
- privileged process can be a security hazard. It is recommended that
- implementations either maintain a list of allowable variable names or
- only set environment variables after the server process has dropped
- sufficient privileges.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient channel
- string "env"
- boolean want reply
- string variable name
- string variable value
-
-
-6.5 Starting a Shell or a Command
-
- Once the session has been set up, a program is started at the remote
- end. The program can be a shell, an application program or a
- subsystem with a host-independent name. Only one of these requests
- can succeed per channel.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient channel
- string "shell"
- boolean want reply
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 10]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
- This message will request the user's default shell (typically defined
- in /etc/passwd in UNIX systems) to be started at the other end.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient channel
- string "exec"
- boolean want reply
- string command
-
- This message will request the server to start the execution of the
- given command. The command string may contain a path. Normal
- precautions MUST be taken to prevent the execution of unauthorized
- commands.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient channel
- string "subsystem"
- boolean want reply
- string subsystem name
-
- This last form executes a predefined subsystem. It is expected that
- these will include a general file transfer mechanism, and possibly
- other features. Implementations may also allow configuring more such
- mechanisms. As the user's shell is usually used to execute the
- subsystem, it is advisable for the subsystem protocol to have a
- "magic cookie" at the beginning of the protocol transaction to
- distinguish it from arbitrary output generated by shell
- initialization scripts etc. This spurious output from the shell may
- be filtered out either at the server or at the client.
-
- The server SHOULD not halt the execution of the protocol stack when
- starting a shell or a program. All input and output from these SHOULD
- be redirected to the channel or to the encrypted tunnel.
-
- It is RECOMMENDED to request and check the reply for these messages.
- The client SHOULD ignore these messages.
-
- Subsystem names follow the DNS extensibility naming convention
- outlined in [SSH-ARCH].
-
-6.6 Session Data Transfer
-
- Data transfer for a session is done using SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_DATA and
- SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EXTENDED_DATA packets and the window mechanism. The
- extended data type SSH_EXTENDED_DATA_STDERR has been defined for
- stderr data.
-
-
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 11]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
-6.7 Window Dimension Change Message
-
- When the window (terminal) size changes on the client side, it MAY
- send a message to the other side to inform it of the new dimensions.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient_channel
- string "window-change"
- boolean FALSE
- uint32 terminal width, columns
- uint32 terminal height, rows
- uint32 terminal width, pixels
- uint32 terminal height, pixels
-
- No response SHOULD be sent to this message.
-
-6.8 Local Flow Control
-
- On many systems, it is possible to determine if a pseudo-terminal is
- using control-S/control-Q flow control. When flow control is
- allowed, it is often desirable to do the flow control at the client
- end to speed up responses to user requests. This is facilitated by
- the following notification. Initially, the server is responsible for
- flow control. (Here, again, client means the side originating the
- session, and server means the other side.)
-
- The message below is used by the server to inform the client when it
- can or cannot perform flow control (control-S/control-Q processing).
- If `client can do' is TRUE, the client is allowed to do flow control
- using control-S and control-Q. The client MAY ignore this message.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient channel
- string "xon-xoff"
- boolean FALSE
- boolean client can do
-
- No response is sent to this message.
-
-6.9 Signals
-
- A signal can be delivered to the remote process/service using the
- following message. Some systems may not implement signals, in which
- case they SHOULD ignore this message.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient channel
- string "signal"
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 12]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
- boolean FALSE
- string signal name without the "SIG" prefix.
-
- Signal names will be encoded as discussed in the "exit-signal"
- SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST.
-
-6.10 Returning Exit Status
-
- When the command running at the other end terminates, the following
- message can be sent to return the exit status of the command.
- Returning the status is RECOMMENDED. No acknowledgment is sent for
- this message. The channel needs to be closed with
- SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE after this message.
-
- The client MAY ignore these messages.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient_channel
- string "exit-status"
- boolean FALSE
- uint32 exit_status
-
- The remote command may also terminate violently due to a signal.
- Such a condition can be indicated by the following message. A zero
- exit_status usually means that the command terminated successfully.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
- uint32 recipient channel
- string "exit-signal"
- boolean FALSE
- string signal name without the "SIG" prefix.
- boolean core dumped
- string error message (ISO-10646 UTF-8)
- string language tag (as defined in [RFC3066])
-
- The signal name is one of the following (these are from [POSIX])
-
- ABRT
- ALRM
- FPE
- HUP
- ILL
- INT
- KILL
- PIPE
- QUIT
- SEGV

-
- Additional signal names MAY be sent in the format "sig-name@xyz",
- where `sig-name' and `xyz' may be anything a particular implementor
- wants (except the `@' sign). However, it is suggested that if a
- `configure' script is used, the non-standard signal names it finds be
- encoded as "[email protected]", where `SIG' is the signal name
- without the "SIG" prefix, and `xyz' be the host type, as determined
- by `config.guess'.
-
- The `error message' contains an additional explanation of the error
- message. The message may consist of multiple lines. The client
- software MAY display this message to the user. If this is done, the
- client software should take the precautions discussed in [SSH-ARCH].
-
-7. TCP/IP Port Forwarding
-
-7.1 Requesting Port Forwarding
-
- A party need not explicitly request forwardings from its own end to
- the other direction. However, if it wishes that connections to a
- port on the other side be forwarded to the local side, it must
- explicitly request this.
-
-
- byte SSH_MSG_GLOBAL_REQUEST
- string "tcpip-forward"
- boolean want reply
- string address to bind (e.g. "0.0.0.0")
- uint32 port number to bind
-
- `Address to bind' and `port number to bind' specify the IP address
- and port to which the socket to be listened is bound. The address
- should be "0.0.0.0" if connections are allowed from anywhere. (Note
- that the client can still filter connections based on information
- passed in the open request.)
-
- Implementations should only allow forwarding privileged ports if the
- user has been authenticated as a privileged user.
-
- Client implementations SHOULD reject these messages; they are
- normally only sent by the client.
-
-
- If a client passes 0 as port number to bind and has want reply TRUE
- then the server allocates the next available unprivileged port number
- and replies with the following message, otherwise there is no
-
-
-

-

-
-
- response specific data.
-
-
- byte SSH_MSG_GLOBAL_REQUEST_SUCCESS
- uint32 port that was bound on the server
-
- A port forwarding can be cancelled with the following message. Note
- that channel open requests may be received until a reply to this
- message is received.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_GLOBAL_REQUEST
- string "cancel-tcpip-forward"
- boolean want reply
- string address_to_bind (e.g. "127.0.0.1")
- uint32 port number to bind
-
- Client implementations SHOULD reject these messages; they are
- normally only sent by the client.
-
-7.2 TCP/IP Forwarding Channels
-
- When a connection comes to a port for which remote forwarding has
- been requested, a channel is opened to forward the port to the other
- side.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN
- string "forwarded-tcpip"
- uint32 sender channel
- uint32 initial window size
- uint32 maximum packet size
- string address that was connected
- uint32 port that was connected
- string originator IP address
- uint32 originator port
-
- Implementations MUST reject these messages unless they have
- previously requested a remote TCP/IP port forwarding with the given
- port number.
-
- When a connection comes to a locally forwarded TCP/IP port, the
- following packet is sent to the other side. Note that these messages
- MAY be sent also for ports for which no forwarding has been
- explicitly requested. The receiving side must decide whether to
- allow the forwarding.
-
- byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN
- string "direct-tcpip"
- uint32 sender channel
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 15]
-
-Internet-Draft SSH Connection Protocol Oct 2003
-
-
- uint32 initial window size
- uint32 maximum packet size
- string host to connect
- uint32 port to connect
- string originator IP address
- uint32 originator port
-
- `Host to connect' and `port to connect' specify the TCP/IP host and
- port where the recipient should connect the channel. `Host to
- connect' may be either a domain name or a numeric IP address.
-
- `Originator IP address' is the numeric IP address of the machine
- where the connection request comes from, and `originator port' is the
- port on the originator host from where the connection came from.
-
- Forwarded TCP/IP channels are independent of any sessions, and
- closing a session channel does not in any way imply that forwarded
- connections should be closed.
-
- Client implementations SHOULD reject direct TCP/IP open requests for
- security reasons.
-
-8. Encoding of Terminal Modes
-
- Terminal modes (as passed in a pty request) are encoded into a byte
- stream. It is intended that the coding be portable across different
- environments.
-
- The tty mode description is a stream of bytes. The stream consists
- of opcode-argument pairs. It is terminated by opcode TTY_OP_END (0).
- Opcodes 1 to 159 have a single uint32 argument. Opcodes 160 to 255
- are not yet defined, and cause parsing to stop (they should only be
- used after any other data).
-
- The client SHOULD put in the stream any modes it knows about, and the
- server MAY ignore any modes it does not know about. This allows some
- degree of machine-independence, at least between systems that use a
- POSIX-like tty interface. The protocol can support other systems as
- well, but the client may need to fill reasonable values for a number
- of parameters so the server pty gets set to a reasonable mode (the
- server leaves all unspecified mode bits in their default values, and
- only some combinations make sense).
-
- The following opcodes have been defined. The naming of opcodes
- mostly follows the POSIX terminal mode flags.
-
- 0 TTY_OP_END Indicates end of options.
- 1 VINTR Interrupt character; 255 if none. Similarly for the
-
-
-
-Ylonen & Moffat, Editor Expires March 31, 2004 [Page 16]
-

-
-
- other characters. Not all of these characters are
- supported on all systems.
- 2 VQUIT The quit character (sends SIGQUIT signal on POSIX
- systems).
- 3 VERASE Erase the character to left of the cursor.
- 4 VKILL Kill the current input line.
- 5 VEOF End-of-file character (sends EOF from the terminal).
- 6 VEOL End-of-line character in addition to carriage return
- and/or linefeed.
- 7 VEOL2 Additional end-of-line character.
- 8 VSTART Continues paused output (normally control-Q).
- 9 VSTOP Pauses output (normally control-S).
- 10 VSUSP Suspends the current program.
- 11 VDSUSP Another suspend character.
- 12 VREPRINT Reprints the current input line.
- 13 VWERASE Erases a word left of cursor.
- 14 VLNEXT Enter the next character typed literally, even if it
- is a special character
- 15 VFLUSH Character to flush output.
- 16 VSWTCH Switch to a different shell layer.
- 17 VSTATUS Prints system status line (load, command, pid etc).
- 18 VDISCARD Toggles the flushing of terminal output.
- 30 IGNPAR The ignore parity flag. The parameter SHOULD be 0 if
- this flag is FALSE set, and 1 if it is TRUE.
- 31 PARMRK Mark parity and framing errors.
- 32 INPCK Enable checking of parity errors.
- 33 ISTRIP Strip 8th bit off characters.
- 34 INLCR Map NL into CR on input.

- 36 ICRNL Map CR to NL on input.
- 37 IUCLC Translate uppercase characters to lowercase.
- 38 IXON Enable output flow control.
- 39 IXANY Any char will restart after stop.
- 40 IXOFF Enable input flow control.
- 41 IMAXBEL Ring bell on input queue full.
- 50 ISIG Enable signals INTR, QUIT, [D]SUSP.
- 51 ICANON Canonicalize input lines.
- 52 XCASE Enable input and output of uppercase characters by
- preceding their lowercase equivalents with `\'.
- 53 ECHO Enable echoing.
- 54 ECHOE Visually erase chars.
- 55 ECHOK Kill character discards current line.
- 56 ECHONL Echo NL even if ECHO is off.
- 57 NOFLSH Don't flush after interrupt.
- 58 TOSTOP Stop background jobs from output.
- 59 IEXTEN Enable extensions.

-10. Security Considerations
-
- This protocol is assumed to run on top of a secure, authenticated
- transport. User authentication and protection against network-level
- attacks are assumed to be provided by the underlying protocols.
-
- It is RECOMMENDED that implementations disable all the potentially
- dangerous features (e.g. agent forwarding, X11 forwarding, and TCP/IP
- forwarding) if the host key has changed.
-
- Full security considerations for this protocol are provided in
- Section 8 of [SSH-ARCH]
